Remember our post about getting started painting your walls?  Now that you’re a pro at painting, how about some suggestions on color combination’s?  Apartment Therapy has an article on great color combos in the bathroom.  Remember color is versatile, what works in the bathroom could work throughout your home! –Article by Sarah Coffey

Pink has made a major comeback in home decor. Especially when paired with chocolate brown. (want more pink and brown? Visit decor by color!)

I remember associating lavender with girlie rooms when I was little.  Look how grown up this bathroom looks!

Tip: Many professional paint stores, and home improvement stores have trial size paint containers to bring

home and test out in your home.  Take advantage of these.  Buy a few colors, paint in a well lit area, and then let dry for a couple of hours. Once you get the right family of color, you can add or detract saturation levels, to make a lighter or darker hue to get just the color you want!
